Church Electoral Roll

It is that time of the year when the church must carry out its annual revision of the church Electoral Roll in preparation for the APCM on Tuesday 14th of May 2024.

If you are currently on The Electoral roll for St Peter’s, you do not need to do anything. Names of those already on the roll can be seen in the list contained within the folder at the back of church available from Sunday the 14th to Sunday the 28th of April.

If you would like to be included in the roll then please complete a form from the folder at the back of church available from Sunday 14th April and hand back to Derek , George, Sue or Mark by Sunday 28th of April at the very latest.

Derek R Smith, St Peter’s Electoral Roll Officer.

​
The St Decuman’s Electoral Roll is also being revised, so if anyone would like to join it there will be forms in church from the start of April.   If you are currently a member there is no need to do anything: you will remain on the Roll.
